BowTieXP evaluation checks, for every candidate
- Modeling depth and quality: Build one agreed hazard scenario, test shared barriers, escalation factors, common-mode dependencies, risk matrices and a controlled revision against the organization's method. Source
- Barrier assurance and operational authority: Demonstrate how modeled attributes, dated evidence, inspection findings and operational restrictions remain distinct, with a named human reviewer and escalation path. Source
- Collaboration, review and history: In the proposed Enterprise configuration, test permissions, concurrent changes, review states, audit history, prior-version retrieval and controlled export. Source
- Incident learning: Trace a fictional incident from evidence and barrier analysis to actions and a separately approved risk-model revision, without allowing the investigation record to rewrite the model automatically. Source
- Offline desktop resilience: Test activation, editing, attachments, reports, backup, restore and conflict handling without a network connection; document every Enterprise or external-data function that stops. Source
- Integrations and data freshness: Demonstrate one real control-data feed end to end, including authentication, object mapping, latency, stale-data marking, failure queue, retry and accountable reconciliation. Source
- Security, deployment and records: Inspect identity, roles, file or repository access, hosting, encryption, backup, retention, audit export and recovery for the actual desktop and Enterprise architecture. Source
- Implementation, support and total cost: Price editions, named modules, users, activation, configuration, migration, integrations, report templates, training, support, maintenance and upgrades separately. Source
- Product and edition boundaries: Map every demonstration step to BowTieXP desktop, Enterprise, IncidentXP, Safety Critical Controls, BowTieServer or Enablon Vision and reject functionality that is not named in the quote. Source
- Customer evidence: No independent customer rating is assigned from vendor documentation. Request references using comparable editions, modules, deployment, industry hazards and governance maturity.
